Coding 6NS (enhanced smartphone integration) still possible?
Call me a cheap-skate for wanting to circumvent a $600 CDN option on a $60k vehicle but i like to tinker (and save while im at it )...ive read, I believe in the X5 sub forum that coding this option was possible in the past but now its very difficult if not impossible...can someone shed light on this?
Im new to BMW and therefore Coding so i dont know very much about this topic yet. I know modifications can void that part of your vehicle should something that goes wrong be traced back to your modification but how does coding something like 6NS affect a warranty? And is it/will it be possible? Last edited by Dabozo; 05-03-2016 at 01:05 PM.. |

Same code, but it is standard in the US. I hope someone can answer your question.

From what I've heard, no. But let me check with a few other folks and I'll post a reply in a few days with their discoveries.
Also, unless you need to have two phones connected and able to operate at the same time (I have personal and work phones), don't bother with the package, since that's the only thing it really adds. The album art, etc., should all work regardless. PS: I believe it also enables Siri Eyes Free, but don't quote me on that as no one I know has tried it yet. |

The dual phone function makes it all worth it (with my work and personal phone)

Also, even without 6NS, we can still stream wirelessly via Bluetooth correct? Pretty sure I read that but need to make sure. |

Siri Eyes Free enables you to control Siri via the car's built in mic and speaker system. It's very slick and quite useful if you're an iPhone user. It's basically CarPlay without the screen. |

Yes, coded this on my UK M2...
Main reason for me was to get SMS displayed and multiple phones ...as above, music streaming was already enabled

What did you code for SMS? I used BimmerCode and got the other features, but can't figure out how to get the "office" menu in idrive for SMS
